Today Mummy, Daddy and I visited Creswell Crags. First we were inside where we saw a fossilised dragonfly. Only four fossilised dragonflies have ever been found in England, and two of them at Creswell Crags. We also saw some bones from the caves. There were bones of hyenas, lions, horses, rhinoceros and mammoth. There was even a hippopotamus! We didn't know all these animals ever lived in England, but now we do!
We then had a walk and looked at all the caves but we couldn't go in them and have a proper look around.
On the way out we bought a fossil surprise bag. We sat on a rock outside and opened it. Inside there were two fossilised shells and some shark teeth. The fossilised shells were from the Jurassic period, about 190 million years old.
